Sad post, but looking for anyone with experience in this.
My sister is 56 with stage 4 with pancreatic cancer. Was given 1-2 years this past Spring, with additional chemo treatments. She has pretty good insurance through a major company, Sprint/T-Mobile. She used up her disability benefits already. The company has been really good to her the past year during her fight. In order to keep her insurance and she was going a little stir crazy, she decided to go back to work on 10/1. Today she was told she now has months. Don’t know if that’s 1-2, 2-4 or 3-6, but we are seeing her decline rapidly.
Family wants her to quit her job and move over to COBRA for the remainder of her life. We can pay the premiums for her. We can pay for her living expenses over the next several months. I have no idea how COBRA works for a situation like this. Anyone ever been through this with a loved one?
